<div class="frm_txt"><p><b>Here, thanks to a Swiss parliamentarian, documentation showing the chief UN energy advisory agency consistently underestimating potential contribution of wind and other renewable energy sources as it keeps pushing nuclear, coal and the old guard energy ideology.
Anyone know how to get a resolution before the UN calling on them to support ONLY renewable energy development throughout the world for a list of social justice and environmental "whereas's" that we could develop?
A similar resolution could be put before many national and local legislative bodies.
Whatd'y'think?

<div class="article">The international body that advises most major governments across the world on energy policy is obstructing a global switch to renewable power because of its ties to the oil, gas and nuclear sectors, a group of politicians and scientists claims today.<p>The experts, from the Energy Watch group, say the International Energy Agency (IEA) publishes misleading data on renewables, and that it has consistently underestimated the amount of electricity generated by wind power in its advice to governments.</div>
